It's most likely a fiber connection, and they cap the download, while not capping the upload. Nearly every fiber connection I've seen has a bigger upload than download, unlike cable or DSL.

Comcast has a 50/10 rated product for business here that's awesome, and will have a 100 meg download product here by end of year.

Don't really like the company, but the bandwidth they offer for the price smokes everything else.

This is news to me and contrary to what I have seen. FIOS will cap your upload so will a YIPES connection (that my company uses)

The ping times are insane for that test (< 2ms). I am guessing the test server is in the same building as the desktop/laptop
